Tour in Perucica

Today we got up extremely early to go to Perucica which is an old-forrest in Sutjesca National Park. A rented bus was ment to pick us up at 6 am, but was unfortunately a bit late late which ment that we was an hour later than scedualed. On the road to the forrest we pulled in to look on a war monument to memorise the partisan war of Tito in Second World War.

When we finally got to the old-forrest four hours later it was covered in clouds and fog. Actually we were supposed to see a beautiful waterfall, but the only sign of the water was the sound of it. We startet in a hight of 1200 metres above sea level, so it was very chilly. Our hiking gear didn't meet the challenge but we decided to take off anyway. Only Lotte was exellent equipped! - five hours of hiking lied ahead of us and we started going down the mountain. With us we had three guides which were really great and professional. They careed all kinds of stuff in their big bagpacks; chocolate, toffees, coffee, water, books about the forrest (mainly read by Uffe) etc.
On our road we saw, among other things, claw markings on trees from bears, interesting kinds of plants (Uffe again) and so on. Three times we crossed streams in different sizes, which caused Sandra a lot of trouble. She got her feet wet :-)
We walked in a little narrow path all the way which was very slippery and muddy. This resulted in numerous strange landings on the ground. Among others Zeynep fell down five times ;-)

All in all we got to the goal full numbered with good spirits, sore legs and wet clothes.

Now we are tired and wants to sleep - Goodnight Denmark and Bosnia i Herzegovina!
.. especially our hosts in Mostar.

Love to all of you!
